According to UK National Health Service, an
average person farts approximately 15 times a day.
Is that your story?
If it is, then there is nothing to be worried
about. Farting is a normal biological phenomenon like sweating, breathing etc.
==what you should know==
Digestion of
ingested food causes the production of gases (mostly Methane, Carbohydrate and
Hydrogen). Our body’s get rid of this useless gaseous build-up by us either
farting or belching. This kind of flatulence is usually not smelly and you
might pass it out without a second thought.
Normal flora
(Bacteria) found within the small/large intestines also causes the production
of gas upon acting-on undigested foods (mostly sugars and polysaccharides). The gas produced is smelly as result of the
presence of sulphur. You might want to watch were you release this kind of “gas-bomb”.
You might
observe that this latter smelly kind of flatulence is mostly produced when you
leave feaces sitting in your large intestines for long periods than normal. This
allows room for intestinal bacteria to act-on and produce the residual sulphur-laden
smelly gas. It should thus, be an indication that you should ‘redial that
missed call from the wash-room’.
Answering the above question, some causes of
flatulence include.
Overeating: This increases the changes that you will have a
whole chunk of undigested food following digestion.
Talking
whiles eating: Talking while you
eat makes you swallow a whole lot of air which must all be excreted in way or
the other.
Eating beans: Beans are well-known to cause the production of
gas during digestion and over eating beans will cause you to blow-smelly-winds.
COUNSEL
As
said earlier, smelly continuous flatulence should be an indication for you to
go ease yourself. If this becomes chronic, dietary changes should be sort it
they exist no existing underlying disease cause.
